Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: openoffice.org

Papercut incident.

This is exactly the same as this bug
http://qa.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=57226

Yet it still exists in the Ubuntu version of OpenOffice Calc.

The former bug was not solved due to insufficient information I can now
provide sufficient information. But since this affects Ubuntu due to the
standard Ubuntu theme I am reporting it here.

When you open an OpenOffice spreadsheet or excel document with comments
in the fields the tooltips are white text on a yellow background making
them impossible to read.

This is because the Ambiance theme (which is standard in Lucid) has
white text as standard.

The solution is to add the following code to

.gtkrc-2.0

style "tooltips" {
        fg[NORMAL] = { 0.0, 0.0, 0.0 }
        text[NORMAL] = { 0.0, 0.0, 0.0 }
}

widget "gtk-tooltips*" style "tooltips"

This needs to be added to the standard install of Ubuntu so that users
do not run into this issue.

I have attached a screen shot so you can see the issue.
